    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may encode, for a first set of resource elements (REs), a first layer for sidelink control information. The UE may encode, for a second set of REs, a second layer for sidelink data, wherein the first set of REs and the second set of REs are associated with a same one or more symbols. The UE may transmit, to another UE and based at least in part on applying superposition coded modulation (SCM) to the first layer and the second layer, the sidelink control information using the first set of REs and the sidelink data using the second set of REs. Numerous other aspects are described.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A transmitting user equipment may receive control information indicative of a plurality of starting symbols in a first slot, the plurality of starting symbols including at least one default starting symbol and one or more subsequent starting symbols, each of the plurality of starting symbols representing a potential starting symbol for transmission, by the transmitting UE, of a sidelink communication. The transmitting UE may perform a listen-before-talk procedure during at least the first slot and may transmit, to a receiving UE and based on performance of the listen-before-talk procedure during at least the first slot, at least an initial portion of the sidelink communication during a selected starting symbols of the plurality of starting symbols, the selected starting symbol being one of the one or more subsequent starting symbols and representing a beginning of a channel occupancy duration.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described in which a first user equipment (UE) may transmit sidelink communications to a second UE, and the second UE may provide feedback associated with the sidelink communication to the first UE in a sidelink control information (SCI) transmission. In some cases, the SCI is first stage SCI transmitted in a sidelink control channel or second stage SCI transmitted in a sidelink shared channel. The feedback may include one or more of acknowledgment/negative-acknowledgment feedback, channel state information feedback, a scheduling request, or any combinations thereof. In some cases, the first UE may indicate resources of the second slot to the second UE for transmission of the feedback in the SCI, such as by providing a time offset value and resource index that identifies the resources.

    Abstract: A method, an apparatus, a base station, and a user equipment (UE) for wireless communication are provided to reduce the retransmission latency for URLLC communications. Upon receiving a downlink data transmission, a UE waits until it completes decoding of the received downlink data transmission before it can send an ACK/NAK report on the decoded downlink data transmission. In case of a decoding failure, the base station cannot start retransmission until the UE finishes the decoding of the downlink data transmission and sends the ACK/NAK report and until the base station finishes decoding of an NAK in the ACK/NAK report. This considerable retransmission latency may not meet stringent latency requirements of some URLLC applications. A two-stage ACK/NAK reporting is disclosed to reduce the retransmission latency where the UE sends an early ACK/NAK report upon partially completing the decoding of the downlink data transmission.
